i need a fan for my (very) small office - will this blow my desk papers around?

It will would be good for your office. Just don't put it on high and point it directly toward you paper work. It will do a fantastic job circulating the air your office. The make a desk fan that is a lot smaller but, it move way less air and you have to be directly in front of it to feel it.

much more predictable than an oscillating fan. as long as you don't point it directly at the desk.

I would use it pointing up to the ceiling, and it would circulate the air really well. If you were to point directly at the desk...then, I am guessing the papers would blow around. It's a great fan and does move the air well.

Any fan will blow papers this thing has three speeds fast is very high it doesn't move back and forth so if you set it on you it stays on you it won't move around if it's on slow speed it should blow your papers very good fan well built low is quit too

It depends on which setting you are using and how the room is configured. If you're just getting the air moving (hence using the lowest setting) then I don't think it would blow papers. The fan is also very targeted in how much area it directly blows so even if you had it on high and pointed it in the right way, I don't think it would be a problem either.

The fan is very quiet. I haven't tried sitting it on a desk yet. The airspeed is NOT adjustable and the area that disperses the air is very, very small. I like it's small size but it doesn't deliver enough air for me.

I wouldn't recommend that application. This fan is made to move air from a case or cabinet not to exhaust a bathroom. It's not big enough

You're better off getting a regular fan. This fan is terrible and noisy and a waste of money. But the answer to your question is no. Unless you're crafty and can make something to hold it. Sorry :(

Yes. It's very quiet & even on higher speed, not that strong. It's more for moving air than direct fanning. I use it on my vanity.

Absolutely. This is 1 great little fan. Quiet and powerful. You may have to set it on low or med depending on how far from bed because it really blows. You will love it.

This will not move ALOT of air. I use it to exhaust hot air from a 24"x48" cabinet, and this will work fine for the a small cabinet, not for a room.

No ... the double fans blow in the same direction. We bought it bc it is a nice size and fits snugly into our window. In the summer our office gw ts too warm and the ac stayed on. Thedan blowing out the hot air allowed the office to cool.you can turn the dan to blow air in or turn it around and blow air out which would be your exhaust that you may need.

I use the fan literally on my desk, and it is quiet enough so that I'm not aware of it when I'm working (other than the breeze :-). Now that I'm listening for it, it does produce a soft "whooshing" noise. It's hard to hear if you're more than 5 feet away from it. I hope this helps you.

actually yes, not sure if it is fan or HDD but it is noisy, but as it leaves in my office I do not bother.It may be due to I set it for constant backups....

No, unless you have it on a flat surface on your lap. The fans are not covered so any soft/uneven surface will hit the fans.

No. I had two of these fans and they are very noisy and fell apart within 6 months....the only saving "grace" was that I got them with my points I earned...

no, it's not quiet enough for an office. i use it in my bedroom for the noise.

Absolutely not. My fan makes a whooshing / blowing noise. A "white noise" if you will.

On the lower setting the fan is reasonable for an office (mine is used at work). It would be noticed only as white noise in my opinion. On high it is louder.

You can use it in a cubicle setting if you want. Just try to place it where it can get good air flow. I keep mine on a two-drawer filing cabinet in my living room. I also have one placed on the floor in my bedroom closet. It has a pretty powerful fan so don't place it close to loose papers, tissues, etc.

No. Please don't waste your time and money on this fan. The output is pitiful. I returned it.
